Good afternoon.
A DoS attack is not a vulnerability, it is an attack on a system with the aim of bringing it to failure.
Limited by the computing resources of the hardware on which the system (website) is running
From the point of view of the system, this is a very large (per unit of time) number of absolutely legal requests.
DoS (abbr. English Denial of Service "denial of service") - a hacker attack on a computer system in order to bring it to failure.
A DoS attack won't help you find vulnerabilities.

I see, but is it possible to check the server for the possibility of using it for doss attacks?
And not about dos attacks, is there any recommended tool for checking external vulnerabilities?
